Zohran didn't win by relying on standard turnout patterns. We had to fundamentally transform the Democratic electorate.
I was part of a group of NYC-DSA members that applied lessons from our previous campaigns to design the “universe” of voters to talk to. Here's how we won 🧵

Two years ago, my friend and neighbor asked me to be in an ad with my then 3-month-old baby to support his mayoral run. Little did I know how much his campaign would change the course of my life, all our lives, for the better.
So proud of @ZohranKMamdani and our movement.
Every politician says New York is the greatest city in the world. But what good is that if no one can afford to live here?
I'm running for Mayor to lower the cost of living for working class New Yorkers.

“You’re a horrible little reporter, aren’t you?”
If any previous president had said that to a reporter at the White House, a female reporter in particular, it would have been a multi-day scandal.
But we as a country and media have normalized this boorish, abusive misogynist.
YIKES 😳 Trump snaps at a reporter asking him about why he's dismissing sexual abuse allegations 👇
WOMAN REPORTER: Do the sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir?
TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with?
REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sexual abuse allegations
TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

NBC reporter on Ramasamy ad: "But there are very serious sexual abuse allegations"
TRUMP: "Quiet!"
Reporter: "They make no difference to you?"
TRUMP: "Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?"

A head-turning new "Michigan First" ad from @AbdulElSayed - he names some issue he agrees with MAGA voters on, then plays a supercut of Fox News hosts/Tucker praising him or bashing Mike Rogers. semafor.com/article/10/23/20…

They’re trying to normalize stealing our elections and destroying our democracy.
We won’t let them.

NEW: Scott Presler allowed multiple out of state GOP operatives to use his home in Pennsylvania to vote in the '24 election. Those operatives then left the state. Election lawyers say this could be in violation of PA voting laws.

AOC praises Troy Jackson for ignoring Washington consultants who would tell him “Do not sit on a stage next to her.”
"It takes a lot to say. You know what? No, I know my people"
Jackson gets standing ovation

Trans voter to @AOC: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that?

with 12 days until the midterm elections, the entire republican party has coalesced around attacking a woman for having been raped by her stepfather when she was twelve
Trump: "Vivek Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Amy Acton, who is running for Governor of Ohio, is a liar, and much worse. The Press, in a concerted and well coordinated attack, is trying to get Vivek Ramaswamy to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about a daughter in that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving in Office"

it's crazy how Curtis Sliwa is just thought of as a quirky uncle or a defender of local communities now. I just read about how in the Goetz trial he and the Guardian Angels were allowed to do a re-enactment for the jury that pretended the shooting victims were actually robbers.

layla law-gisiko is now claiming she just "found herself standing on the same sidewalk as vickie paladino" at a press conference. a photo from that event shows layla smiling and embracing vickie.
i don't want to mince words: this is conservative entryism into dsa.
